“This young man represents the natural beauty of sound, born in the islands.” – Henry G. Akine, Artistic Director of the Hawaii Opera Theatre

Kalae Miles- Davis – The Jazz Hawaiian – will be serving up an evening of elegant jazz standards at the Kuumbwa Jazz Center in downtown Santa Cruz. Backed by a tight quartet of local Santa Cruz musicians, Kalae’s soaring vocals and soulful expression add up to a performance that is not to be missed. Jazz will meet Hula at this concert: Hula dancer Lara Sniffen will be on-hand to share her aloha at Kuumbwa.
